Pogba seems ok as a CM so far Bruh. But defensive-wise, I will do as you proposed though.

Pogba is happier when he score goals, don't let these pre season fool you. He is our best player when it comes to creating chances and finding spaces in the box as a midfielder

I get your point bro, but he seems happier playing as a CM also. If Sanchez is fit, picks form and ain't sold, I won't mind to play him as No. 10 to be honest.

Na thunder go fire Ole if e no do the following.

1. Find a sharp striker to replace Rashflop.
2. Find a creative, skilful and mature AM to displace Lingard.
3. Find a replacement for Matic.
4. Sell Damian, Smalling, Jones and Rojo.

The thunder still de do press up
You just dey make noise since.

OGS is not the one responsible for who comes and who goes. Unfortunately for him, this is not Man City where the owners will sell and buy at his request. He can only drop his recommendations and wait for the club to get him what he needs.


The only thing he can do is keep the deadwoods out of his starting 11. That is where he has real power.


Stop acting as if OGS is the one that will go and personally buy the players as if na Shoprite

If he's able to pay his dues as a coach, he will get that right. For now, he should concentrate on improving the ones he has which shouldn't be struggling to make top four imo

You mean he cannot tell a player that he is surplus to requirements and should find another club?

Abi o.

People out here acting like players are bought and sold like Tatashe and Alefo.

Maybe he'll buy the players he wants Ole to sell.

We all want the dead wood gone but then again, we need to realize United is a business subject to the whims and caprices of its administrators.

I know Woodie and Co won't shell out anything substantial for replacing deadwood and only a tool will go into the season with a depleted bench.

I understand where you're coming from.
Mesef was disappointed he told Rojo he still had him in his plans.
And Mata got contract extensions under his watch....i no wan call the extensions of Young, Jones and Smalling here coz you cant expect a "caretaker manager" to be influencing who gets an extension and who doesn't.

But let's say he tells the deadwood to go and find another club, then what? Is he going to forcibly remove the player from the club as the club no gree sell them? And even if the player leaves, you can see how that useless Woodward dey always drag feet for the transfer market just to buy one player.


All we can hope for as fans is OGS gets it right, and ostracizes the deadwood from the team. Which is where we will all agree with eph12 that the team should at least be making top 4 even in the club's present state.

Exactly some of those deadwoods need to go but not all of them at once if not the team would be too thin and we'll have a repeat of what happened late February where almost everyone got injured at the same time.

Still i believe OGS needs to be stricter. Right now all i see is a manager who is trying to please everyone. He should at least stop dropping some of those deadwoods from the team even if he cant chase them away from the club.

If OGS is serious about his job and where he wants the club to be, he needs to phase out Lingard, Matic, Mata, Smalling, Jones and Rojo from his first team.
He can rely on them for some squad roles but they should no longer be the core of his team going into the new season.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 5:58pm On Jul 20, 2019
Deadwoods in the Club will be disposed but not this Season. However, most of them would regret not seeking a new Club, if the Lads in Plan pick up and are delivering week in week out.

Solskjaer:


“There won't be any players here I don't want,” he told BBC Sport.

“We are still looking at one or two options but it depends on outgoings.

“It might be more because if suddenly two or three go, then you have to replace players.”

From all indications, OGS seems to be happy with his present squad and I can understand the frustration of some of the fans...

Anyways, the TW is still wide open and I would wait till Sept 1st before I give my assessment of transfers (both in & out)
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Lana1(m): 6:08pm On Jul 20, 2019
Do we even really need this McGuire? Especially for that price too?
A Lindelof and Tuanzebe defence looked ok. As long as none of Jones or Smalling dey that defence....and more importantly, as long as they dont both play together, that defence already looks better especially now that Young has been bounced.

I think they should forget about McGuire and put all effort into getting Fernandes and improving that midfield.

Don’t be deceived, Tuanzebe is not ready for that pressure. Right now a fit Jones is ahead of him sef. The only obvious odd men out in terms of style are Smalling and Rojo.

The Inter striker was a 17yr old boy not named Mason Greenwood. And Inter are a week behind us in training. Relying on Axel to be a starter week in week out is a recipe to missing top 4 this season.

Tuanzebe on Wan-Bissaka: “You can see why we paid so much money for him. He’s a great defender with great feet. He’s been solid, he’s been made welcome. He’s quiet but we'll get him out of his shell. We call him the spider because nobody can get past him.”
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 6:15pm On Jul 20, 2019
We need a quality CB and another quality CM to avoid stories that touch.
We need a reliable top class CF too but i can’t think of any that is available.

Totally concur.

For me a top class, proven center back is non-negotiable.

Even if we don't get any other signings (in which case Ogun will punish Woodie and Avram), we need a commanding CB.

Did you not see what God did in the life of Liverpool last season? Don't you want to experience that kind of miraculous defensive transformation?

Tuanzebe and Lindelof are not very convincing aerially. That's the reason we play Smalling when we've got bullies to shackle.

Have to keep going down the rabbit hole.

De Ligt is gone.

Koulibaly is really difficult to negotiate especially with the price Napoli requests.

I'm not sure Maguire is worth what Leicester requests but since they are not many competent trusted available center backs around, we need to make that transfer work.

Some of our players dont need replacement, they need to be sold and if possible promote a youngster from the academy. Its better for a club academy graduate to play be playing nonsense than for a so called experience mofo with jumbo salary playing nonsense

Person wey don wash finish, somebody that want to do us wetin sanchez do, sign a BIG liability with huge contract, anf then struggling to offload, same thing Herrera wan do, somebody that is supposed to be playing for Alaves or Elche. I don talk, 80% of our players in the last 4-5 season are gabbage, DDG joined them once he returned from world cup.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by MRTA7: 6:38pm On Jul 20, 2019
Its not realistic to get rid of those players without taking a massive hit on contract expenses. Those players are all on massive contracts. No one will match their wages anywhere else so they'll all sit tight. Who in their right mind will match Rojo's £160k pw?

Leave him let him be there defending Ole that is busy doing tumbom tumbo on who between Jonesy,Smally and Rojy to play against Chelsea, and giving Youngy captain, building team around Lingy. Somebody that will limit these useless player's playing time even in pre season to about 5 mins each to send a message to them. Promote youth players, they cant be as sh..ite as the players i mentioned. Which serious club plays Lingard even as a substitute. I can swear that Lingard cannot make the first XI in Leicester, Everton, Watford, Wolves, Westham and dont be surprised Southhamptom, but Ole is here talking about wanting everybody in the squad. If he continue with this his style, Except our current youngsters somehow performs magic, Martial stop behaving like a woman and Rashford having a good season, I dont see Ole in charge beyond Xmas, if he manages to, i dont see us finishing in top 8.
